Different than the tactics of The MUSIC INDUSTRY? Doesn't he mean EVERY INDUSTRY?

Trent Reznor would never be in his current position without first having had TENS OF MILLIONS of dollars invested in him and his band. I mean this is a guy who spent thousands of dollars to rent out Sharon Tate's house for a recording just for the ambiance of the place.

This is too ridiculous.
I'm sorry -- did I miss something?

Has someone given away something that belongs to someone else?

What's the problem, here?


I did a Google News search and it looks like NIN is raking in cash hand over fist. Supposedly the $300 Limited Edition already sold out. According to someone else's math, that's revenue of $750K right off the top.
